Dive Brief:
- Cengage Learning on Wednesday announced that its MindTap platform will gain speech capture capabilities as a result of a new partnership with YouSeeU.
- YouSeeU will be available as one of the platform's "MindApps," allowing students to record and capture speech presentations via webcam or phone for instructors and peers to review and evaluate.
Dive Insight:
This addition to Cengage's platform is especially beneficial to oral communication instructors. Not only does YouSeeU allow students to capture video of their presentations, oral exams, and more, but it enables distance education programs to better serve students in need of oral comm credits. The app is currently set to be included in Mindtap's speech communication and business communication products, but will be added to more in the coming school year.
